Oppose Medical Censorship

A recently-introduced bill in Congress would amend the law to make companies like Facebook and Twitter legally liable for promoting “health misinformation” during a declared public health emergency—a term which will be defined by the government. This is a disastrous attack on free speech that must be opposed.

Write to Congress and tell them to oppose this bill.

A recently-introduced bill in Congress would amend the law to make companies like Facebook and Twitter legally liable for promoting "health misinformation" during a declared public health emergency--a term which will be defined by the government. This is a disastrous attack on free speech that must be opposed.

The problems with this bill are obvious. If the government gets to decide what is considered "health misinformation," this could be used to censor speech about anything that isn't government-approved medicine. It wouldn't just be outlandish claims that are banned. You'd be less likely to learn about the benefits of supplements for COVID since we know the government has attacked individuals who disseminate this information since the pandemic began.

The bill instructs the Department of Health and Human Services to issue guidance defining "medical misinformation." Of course, what constitutes "misinformation" is in the eye of the beholder; any definition will likely be vague enough to encapsulate any health information the government doesn't like. Will you be censored if you discuss the side effects of the COVID vaccine? If you point out the potential limits of their efficacy? If you talk about the immune support that vitamin D offers? If you discuss anything that deviates from the party line of the CDC or the FDA?

Emerging data means that narratives--and what is considered "misinformation"--can change. What was callously dismissed by many in the mainstream media as a conspiracy theory--the idea that the COVID virus could have escaped from a virology lab in Wuhan--has now gained traction with leading virologists endorsing the theory and President Biden calling for further investigation into the origins of the pandemic.

This new bill gives the government unprecedented power to control the information to which we are exposed. Anything that challenges the government and Big Pharma's one-size-fits all paradigm will be censored and eliminated from online discourse. We cannot allow this step towards authoritarianism to gain traction.

For these reasons, please oppose the Health Misinformation Act of 2021.
